About Highway
Homes
Highway Homes, located between Interstate 80 and Sonoma Boulevard, is a residential and commuter-friendly Vallejo neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and a grid of wide, car-oriented streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Sonoma Blvd corridor near Redwood Street, where auto shops, taquerias, and small storefronts set a practical, everyday rhythm. Housing reads as postwar, with single-story facades, modest front yards, and frequent driveway parking. Blue Rock Springs Park frames the area with open hills and trailheads. The Vallejo Farmers Market at Kaiser Permanente Vallejo Medical Center adds a weekly civic pulse. Six Flags Discovery Kingdom and the Solano County Fairgrounds sit close by for big-event energy.
